Fantastic to see the launch of Derby Folk Festival! I love this festival - it brings the city alive and provides space to celebrate Derby's great folk tradition, alongside new acts. Another Culture Derby 2025 star! #cityofculture2025

Huge thanks to Kip with Dave for stepping into the Fringe Festival slot at 12pm, as Kelsey Shaw is unwell. Wishing Kelsey a speedy recovery, and grateful for the Festival family x

They say a picture paints a thousand words... Maybe not quite a thousand in this case, but we've put all of our festival artists' images into a slideshow so you can see who's coming all in one place!

We loved the concerts under the moon a few years ago, so we're thrilled that Gaia will be in place during the festival this year. So good when Derby's events link and work together ❤️
